cabinets
Enclosed shelf units
Cabinets are storage furniture with doors, shelves, or drawers, typically built into walls or standing as freestanding pieces.
Kitchen cabinets hold dishes and food; bathroom cabinets store toiletries; filing cabinets organize documents.
The word also refers to a body of senior government officials who advise a head of state: The president met with her cabinet to discuss the crisis.
This political sense derives from the private room where such advisors would gather.
